Crown of Ashes: The Shattered Veil

Always travellin'

A system appeared. Then came the monsters. The world changed overnight—and only those with skills could survive. Our MC? A broke loser with nothing... except one glitchy power: Copy Skill. From zero to chaos, he’ll steal, adapt, and fight his way up—one busted skill at a time. Add badass battles, a wild harem, unexpected comedy, and you've got the start of a legend. Weak to strong. Action-packed. Hilarious. Welcome to the grind.

"In a world where every child awakens a class, he awakened two. Then shattered them both." In a galaxy governed by awakening ranks—from F to XXR, with X being the peak ever recorded—Arel was destined to fall short. Born to a humble blacksmith and a housewife in a backwater planet forgotten by the stars, his future was set in stone: poverty, ridicule, and silence. At age twelve, when every child awakens their Class, Arel receives a Saint—an honorable, divine-based class—only to watch it crumble and be replaced by something cursed: Necromancer. In a world where the dead are feared and mental strain from summoning consumes even veterans, Necromancers are discarded, unwanted, dangerous. Especially when they’re human. But Arel is different. He doesn’t just raise bones—he revives souls. Each minion he summons remembers their past, grows, evolves. And behind this forbidden class lies a System, whispering to him secrets buried in time, rewards within dungeons, and a path toward something ancient—something forgotten. As chaos brews, dungeons erupt, and unknown races from far galaxies stir, Arel embarks on a journey to uncover the truth behind his father’s silence, his missing mother, and his sister’s mysterious Elf-Psychic hybrid class. In a universe where even S-rank warriors tremble before Demon Lords of the Abyss, where Dragonkin guard their island realms and empires crumble overnight, Arel doesn’t just plan to survive. He plans to break the system, forge a new path—and ascend beyond the ranks known to any galaxy. Even if it means becoming a being the world no longer remembers. Even if it means becoming... Chaosborn.

Common Summary: A common modern man finds himself in an immortal cultivation world right after his death. Armed with a sect system to assist him on this difficult journey, he is shocked to discover that the elders summoned by the system are, in fact, avatars of himself. Determined to take things one step at a time and enjoy his new life, he makes a decision: "I’ll leave the problems to my avatars, and I’ll cultivate in peace." ---------------------------------- Xianxia Summary: Are your cultivation techniques of high quality? Then check out the almost-perfect techniques my avatar created! The best quality golden core is the extreme first-grade core? Then look at my extreme first-grade core! The usual tribulation for geniuses has 9 lightning bolts? Mine does too! I don’t have a perfect foundation, so if the heavens send more lightning, I’ll sue them! Common protagonists take an elixir that should make them rise 9 levels, but they only rise 1 because of their perfect foundation? Then I’ll take it and rise 10 realms, because my foundation is almost-perfect, not perfect. While other protagonists struggle in one realm to reach perfection and fight a level higher, I’m already 4 realms ahead. ---------------------------------- PS: There is no other protagonist besides the MC. In this summary, the protagonists mentioned are only from the works he read in the modern world. PS2: I try to include explanations and descriptions of each realm and other aspects of the world, but they will only appear when the MC interacts with them or reaches that realm. PS3: The avatars don’t have much focus in the beginning, but in later chapters, they will get more and more screen time. PS4: Almost reaching the last console. PS5: I made it! ---------------------------------- The story will also be available on RR, under the same title and author pseudonym.
